General Discussion for Virtual Youtubers / Vtubers / Chuubas - it's okay to be a simp for 2D, just don't thirstpost.

KSON is quite angry about something, but I don't really know what this is all about. Here's a screenshot of the translation of her latest two tweets:

Can someone elaborate on this situation?

Could this be related to the Playism stuff? I don't recall any other big news involving her recently.
No. It's about her recent stream, apparently she said something that was maliciously twisted by some people.
This something is about someone else, that's why she's mad - otherwise she would just ignore it.
The only thing that comes to mind is when she talked about a former coworker who became a streamer, but I don't see how it could be talked about negatively.

I honestly thought this was fake when I saw it, but nope, these are real screenshots of some tech demo (either that or edited Zelda/other game screenshots?) they've uploaded on their Hololive Alternative Recruitment page.

More than a tech demo looks they just put them on Genshin Impact (even when some hololivers were ninja added like Kiara and Noel)

It may be this.
It's about her advice to the coworker that is better being an indie and not joining agencies, but she also said the conversation happened at least 1 year ago. Chinks twisted People misunderstood it, thinking she's talking about hololive.
 
Like Selen even says in the clip, western companies are usually more confused as to why they're being asked for permission. It's JP companies like Nintendo that are super anal about permissions (I think nintendo requires advanced notice ANY time someone is going to be streaming one of their games going beyond even just "permission")
Kiara stated on on her Henry Stickman stream that she wanted to play Mario Kart instead , but since it was a replacement in her schedule she couldn't give Nintendo the required 24 hours notice.
 
the answer for why it's that simple should be obvious, it's a western developer.

That being said there still might be contracts involved, Selen didn't say she was going to go straight to streaming it, she said she'd pass it over to her manager, so if there's any background shit that needs to be done beyond that (like signing forms or whatever) that will happen now behind the scenes.

Update on this: Kanae already played it today, so it's been given the all-clear.

And while I agree that Western devs are invariably more lax, I would think that the desire for written contracts would be coming from Anycolor so they have everything in writing. Unfortunately, Japanese companies in anime/games have a history of making a verbal agreement with American companies and getting totally fucked over (Harmony Gold's stranglehold on Macross, XSEED Games' issue of localising Trails in the Sky SC before Nihon Falcom expressly said they would be allowed to localise the game, etc.)

Selen also couldn't secure permissions for the Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy at her debut, but COULD get permissions for the newly-released Crash 4: It's About Time. Activision/TfB are also western companies but they clearly have their own wishes for their IPs too.

Guess Bao's Damage control was really effective seeing as people are sucking her dick on twitter again.

Western V-Tuber fans, by and large, just want the easiest route to what is non-confrontational. It doesn't matter how outta pocket Bao was trying to cancel an autistic man for no reason because drama makes people uncomfortable. We see this 'There is no War in Ba Sing Se' attitude all over Reddit and the Discord fan channels when shit goes down.

Shes just following a bunch of small vtubers sucking their dicks , making it seem like shes not a skeevy piece of shit.

I just don't think Following a bunch of small streamers stroking their ego, should make up for publicly blasting someone 100x smaller than you.

Hopefully not. Subaru being a duck was a happy little accident that gained traction because of how fitting it was, while this looks like someone (with good but misguided intentions) trying to put the horse label on her just because of the birthing stream.
Most girls wouldn't appreciate being compared to a horse lmao
 
The next Subaru?

That horse shit is cringe af.

Yeah this does seem disrespectful. Who wants to be called a horse? These fucking clippers and the retarded videos they make. If they aren't making some weird sexual innuendo click bait titles, they make retarded shit like this.

Not saying I like the clips, but if Sana actually enjoyed these I wouldn't be at all surprised. Woman's an oddball.
